HW12 Discrete Probability Distributions: Problem 8 Previous Problem Problem List Next Problem (1 point) Consider the following game of chance based on the spinner below. Each spin costs $2. If the spinner lands on D the player wins $7, if the spinner stops on the player wins a dime otherwise the player wins nothing. Calculate the players expected winnings. Express your answer to at least three decimal places in dollar form..​

Jeffery conducted a survey in his school and found that 30 of the 50 eighth grade students' favorite subject is mathematics. based on the results, jeffery concluded that out of the 200 students in his school, 120 students' favorite subject is mathematics. select the statement that is true about jeffery's conclusion. a. jeffery's conclusion is not valid because the sample was biased since only 200 students were surveyed. b. jeffery's conclusion is valid because the sample was random since all of the students were eighth grade students. c. jeffery's conclusion is valid because the sample was random. d. jeffery's conclusion is not valid because the sample was biased since all of the students were eighth grade students.

Exclude leap years from the following calculations. (a) compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on october 4. (type an integer or a decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) (b) compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 1st day of a month. (type an integer or a decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) (c) compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 30th day of a month. (type an integer or a decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) (d) compute the probability that a randomly selected person was not born in january. (type an integer or a decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)

If p(x) is the total value of the production when there are x workers in a plant, then the average productivity of the workforce at the plant is a(x) = p(x) x . (a) find a'(x). a'(x) = xp'(x) − p(x) x a'(x) = xp'(x) − p(x) x2 a'(x) = p'(x) − p(x) x a'(x) = xp'(x) − p'(x) x2 a'(x) = p'(x) − xp(x) x2 why does the company want to hire more workers if a'(x) > 0? a'(x) > 0 ⇒ a(x) is ; that is, the average productivity as the size of the workforce increases. (b) if p'(x) is greater than the average productivity, which of the following must be true? p'(x) − xp(x) > 0 p'(x) − xp(x) < 0 xp'(x) − p'(x) > 0 xp'(x) − p(x) < 0 xp'(x) − p(x) > 0
